Re: Stupid questions regarding CUDA, OpenCL and Premiere 6

thunderbolt won't be in a position to hande GPU throughput until later, faster 100 Gbps specs are introduced in about three years time. I'm repeating that like a parrot mind you. 20Gbps doesn't and won't cut it for external GPU throughput.

Also my understanding is that this doesn't relate to disk read write ala the promise raid. the stuff coming off a c300 or an af100 or a 7D isn't exactly a data hog. the whole point is that there is no DI codec to send them to in premiere. I'm relying on premiere's super powered open timeline to throw that stuff around natively, but if Premiere doesn't have CUDA its dead in the water in those scenarios dealing with native camera codecs. that's right isn't it?
